I know. That car is fast in the heat. 10's in H is ludicrous speed

Looks like Jim would have run 10.83 or 84 if he held it down.

Ken, Pro Mod was actually even more interesting 10+ years ago with the old body styles and paint jobs. The turbo cars couldn't really compete back then, but they certainly can now.

Yes, the three engine combos make it really fun to watch, but too many of the cars look-alike now. I would love to see the old body styles come back but that will probably never happen.

Certainly more interesting than Pro Stock for sure!

And that's as a 78 as a 77 it would be
Around .68-.70 in H

Rod that"s a good combo and with that kind of air I would hope if Jimmy stepped on it hard he would have been able to run a lot quicker than that. We're not there so we really don't know if he had it on kill. And in that kind of air I would think no one did fearing going 1:20 under. Ron if you are running in H and in that kind of air you can't run at least 10:90's or better you need to find some help with your car or another combo. BP
